@malformed-poetry.bsky.social Thank an item in my house.
O humble grounded electric outlet,
with your little face and aghast mouth!
So small and rudely used-
Yet without your service,
My electronics would fail,
Keep the current alive- and me too!
#MMPrompt Write me a poem that is AGGRESSIVELY human
No-coffee morning rages
make people aggressively...
something.
Bleary-eyed: humanity still
rebooting.
Bleary-hearted: humanity still
offline.
Sometimes it's not about the coffee.
#emoetry #mighty #WeirdMIcro #creeping_void
That one final night
Into a mighty creeping void
launched the raven
#haikufeels #enrich
Cherry blossoms fade
Green envelops fruits to be
Dog enriches trees.
#haikufeels
Yoga- #inflate lungs,
pause, exhale slow. The true breath
which balances the body.
#haikufeels #remain
Packed luggage sits;
Clothes arranged on bed, ready.
The shoes remain.
#MPPrompt #Wherehaveyoubeen #manifestoes
I have been with my toes,
my many toes, busily festering
As I plot poetry (AHHHHH AURGH!)
with new feet called pterodactyl:
DUM da da AUUGH ARGH
e.g.
Hickory AUGGGHH ARGH
take a lil Mulligan AUUGH ARGGH
That's my manifesto, Malachy AUUGHH ARRRGH
#WildWalkPrompt #Aubergine
M-W EXPLAINS
Purple fruit of India: Baingan
Exported by the Arabs
with Al- tackled on,
Shipped as Alberginia
to Catalina.
French palates
oiled it to au-ber-zhin--
As of 1767
The British call it aubergine.
Americans just say eggplant:
That new word of 1775.
You ain't in the loop,
You're just loopy--
same old excuse-oop.
(I couldn't resist.)
#AcrosticApril #emoetry #greed #KITES
Keeping high on breeze
In instant sky greed
Touring the landscape:
Espionage tool once,
Still kids' low-tech drones
Hm.
Horse loses head in photoshopped camping.
If I had extra space I would have captioned this
FROM EARTH TO ARTEMIS
#MMPrompt #BrokenSpine
#You_never_loved my gravity;
you were always deflected
by others' brilliance
Always drawn to others'
magnetism.
I had hoped our love was strong
Instead you craved electric,
yet weak interactions.
If you had loved my gravity
More than a passing crush
You would have stayed-
#emoetry #wildwalkprompt #emotional #geese #patterns
Silver lake shines gold.
Geese fly in caret pattern:
Emotional honks.
#Emoetry prompt for 4/11 is #dejected #charmed
Some lives are charmed.
Others are dejected;
It all depends on who beholds
from inside or outside;
Many lives are both at once.
#AcrosticApril #PUNCH #MUSIC
Percussion's Magnificat:
Unplugged Underscore
Nihilistic Strikes
Chiming Instrumentals
Harm-on-yo's Crescendos
#WildWalkPrompt #Tragedy
#emoetry #blistered #AcrosticApril
Fireplace sadness warms
Legs linger by the light
Aimless thoughts flicker
Mourning old tragedy
Emotions still blistered
Smoking hearts with silence.
#emoetry #Agony
We bewailed our agony as rant
to the agony aunt
prim in her corset and brolly
grim in pen's scold
and hair quite bouffant;
So her profile did vaunt.
We got a reply postmarked
from the local gaol
ready to aid our bullies' avaunt
(she went from advice
to putting people in vises.)
#WildWalkPrompt #Seashell
Seashell be by the shore
Shell coming over the sand
when she comes (Splish splash!)
Shell be sailing over six waves
when she comes (Splish Splash!)
Whelk be out for the beachcomb
under the bright jelly sun (dizzle dazzle!)
Seashell be by the shore waiting--
Ekphrastic sometimes is my middle name. EchoEkprhasticGnomics.
#haikufeels #target #latch
Dog's mouth on the leash
Magnetic latch on collar
Outdoor time's asked for.
#haikufeels #happen #ignore
Sparrows ignore cats
behind glass doors for dead grass.
Nests slowly happen.
Random ideas:
Dead Men Do Wear Plaid.
The Sporranmaker
Tartan, Lord of the Apes
The Bagpipes Redemption
Star Wars: A New Plaid
I hope these kids were photoshopped in because that's gross parental negligence letting these kids near a seriously accused pedophile who is never photographed with his own grandkids.
#Emoetry #wounded #AcrosticApril #STORM #MPPrompt
Sky wounded in sharp flashes
Tornado watches spinning,
Overcast and ominous
Rain with deep rumbling:
Monsoonal meteorologies.
#MMPrompt sciences, pluralized
A disciple asked her guru,
why stop the cycle of death and rebirth?
He replied:
"All these thanatologies,
All these obstetricses,
to endure, rarely recalled-
and you must ask why
people want nirvana?"
"Well, frankly, their music..."
she replied.
#MMPrompt, sciences pluralized
One multi-cosmologist
sighed how all these ontologies
trying to describe the multiverse
in multi-volume papers
were entirely becoming
on-too-long-logies.
#MPPrompt Sciences, doubled.
The tapdancer surprised his friends
with a double major of exercise science
and physics in a song and dance:
before they need a helping hand, he'll step in time
to research how people step without rhyme,
All kinesiologies are a step in time--
Sometimes dogs' ethology/ anthropology is more on the order of hotdogology.
But it still counts as researching the researcher.
#MPPrompt Sciences, pluralized.
The careful ethologist
tackling the science of cynology
Must recall that two ethologies
simultaneously occur
in the act of research:
One in which we observe,
one in which we are observed
as fellow animals,
with equipment beyond our ken-
Dogs are tricky that way.
